The staff wore different colors so you knew where they belonged. Essentially Disneyland employees in their themed uniforms, lol
"you have My Lady's Fancy, which is lighter" "oh well then let's swap!" I love Rosemary so much
The lime green scarf is it’s own character.
Antoine Careme worked for George iv (Victoria's uncle) and definitely used piping bags for pastry and such. So I doubt that the potatoes were just clumsily pushed in with fingers.
i know it's kinda randomly asking but do anybody know a good site to stream new series online?
Thank you!
The hosts are perfect, and I loved how each part of the servant’s work and life were presented. The food also looked delicious.
2 minutes in and he said he is as keen as mustard and I liked the video lol
I've just discovered this and binging it. Rosemary and Tim have such a chemistry! Even if they're apart into two different worlds of the Victorian era, they're pretty much wrorking in complete synergy. Not to mention their excellent, tasteful and very english humor. Not to mention, the chef is amazing.
I absolutely love it!
These two remind me of that celebrity obsessed couple in gta 5
A fancy pheasant dish served on a rumpled bedsheet! 😁 Someone forgot to iron the table cloth!
Exactly what I thought!
Probably "ironed" on that torture rack in the basement.
This whole thing was so aggressively British, idk why I found it so funny at some points.
The food 🤢🤢🤢🤢
@@sweetlexii71 British food is lame ... colonize half of the world , still eat crap food
@@Jasuta123 The moment they started cooking, I thought "O God, this is definitely British food!"
Aggressively British! I love it!
Don't worry, I felt the same too 😂 Couldn't be more cliché high brow if they tried
22:11 -- Carême was notorious for elaborately constructed dishes. His cookbooks were full of such constructions -- multi-layer desserts in the shapes of towers, castles, etc.
The one that he put together....🤣
I love seeing people passionate! This was mildly interesting imo, but Rosmary's childlike glee when getting the chance to use victorian-style household equipment made me smile quite a few times. You can feel the excitement!
so...boiled potato and veggies, but make it ~fancy~
Exacly! I stepped in to say something just like that; cheap ingredients, turned into innecesarily laborious -yet pretty- "culinary art" xD
You forgot about the pheasant the bird of the upperclass
It looks positively disgusting.
I'm moving my pinter finger horizontally from left to right while reading this
The castles are so grand and fun to explore, they must've been really cold inside as they were primarily made of stone. Recipes are really well done.
As an American I find british monarchy and people fascination with it as funny as people's fascination with celebrities ut I do like watching these kinds of shows to see the bits and bobs of how the world worked back then
We have had a monarch for over 1000 years in this country; making it a huge part of our history and heritage, therefore it really does make sense that people would be interested in it. Celebrity on the other hand is a very modern concept by comparison, although even back in the 18th century there were so called “celebrities” in England, such as the fashion icon ‘Georgiana Cavendish, Duchess of Devonshire’ - who was constantly admired/ ridiculed in major publications at the time for her love life, extravagance, gambling addiction etc.
"Im keen as mustard to take a bird's-eye upstairs." Has to be most English sounding expression ever.
Of course we all love Rosemary Shrager and Tim Wonnacott, but the real hero of this whole series is really Ivan Day.
I’m not quite sure why people think the food is gross. It would be like having pan fried chicken breast with potatoes and carrots. I don’t particularly like chestnuts but cooking them in broth would certainly help
They used salt and pepper and butter. It would be plain by current standards but certainly edible and that would have only been one part of a much larger meal so it seems fine to me.
people thinking it's gross cuz it has veggies and is made like a normal home cooked meal :L big sad
@GotWood? Bushcraft and more No it isn't. Try a Hungarian kholodetz, it's delicious.
For my taste, the presentation is not good, but that changes with times, so it's not the dish's fault. It must be very tasty, though.
I’m so thrilled about these they excite me and everything has been such a bore on all the movie platforms but leave it to RUclips as a go to when everything else fails for whatever reason .ty for sharing this it really is interesting and I’m learning a lot and while I’m watching I reflect on my ancestors and what they went thru and how I ended up here too lol
Tim and Rosemary are wonderful together.😄
That pie was fascinating
This is my new favorite show.
It just goes to show you that you can't take it with you , so enjoy it now, don't hesitate.
Hopefully the kitchen staff washed their hands frequently.
A.J London they didn’t bathe only washed every few days hygiene wasn’t heard of
You can rest assured that the royal servants washed their hands as frequently as a few times a month. The picture of sanitation for the time, for sure!
A.J London one of the reasons why illness and disease spread like wildfire. Drs didn’t even wash their hands operating on patients.
People often actually cleaned. Especially in the Victorian time period. They were obsessed with cleanliness. Sure, they didn’t have a bath every day, but they washed their faces and necks, changed out their underclothes almost daily. After all, no one likes to be around someone who smells. Even two hundred years ago.
@@rosaliehawthorn yes! Thank you! The Victorians were obsessed with cleanliness. I mean, some of the stuff they used was toxic. But the fear of germs was very real. The lack of proper disposal of sewage, and then it getting mixed with the drinking water ,was more prevalent in the spread of cholera. Thats why they drank beer and wine over water. But the poop water was still being cooked with and used for bathing.
As an artist I found this so inspiring! Such beauty in even the staff areas!
old is gold always
#royal recipes
Loving this series, but poor Victoria was dragged from pillar to post!
Ditto! Poor Victoria traveling so far and often. That tiny broach is lovely!
Poor little victim!
Though I agree she shouldn’t have been yanked about at that pace, I think it was a good idea to have her travel and learn about the country she was to rule in five years.
Anyone know how her servants lived?? I don't feel sorry for her one bit!!
Victoria's mother needed her seen and liked by the people. The Crown was tentatively hers at this point.
Some of those household contraptions are brilliant.
Lots of hard work tho.
Oh I can bet there was a lot of horsing around there ! 😉🤣
Poor Victoria, dragged hither and yon, while everyone ate everything like locus invading fields.
LOCUSTS...
Thank you for uploading, 🌸unfortunately I couldn’t visit the magnificent Shugborough House, though it’s been on my list for ages!
Victorian Upstairs are as interesting, sometimes intriguing as Downstairs. Poor servants, their lives must have been tiresome with the 12-hour-shifts with only a half a day off/ week.
Loved every episode so glad I came across this on RUclips
Food art is amazing.
“Keen as mustard “
I love the expression
Still watching this in 2021 lol. Love this show
Surely a piping bag would have made quick work of those mashed potatoes.
I was thinking the same thing!
The hosts are great... Great job❤️
''you're plastered!'' hahaha :)
"Is that where they got the saying your plastered" lol well, it could be.
I'm keen as mustard...!! lol
Very interesting. I wish I could travel to these historical manors, but I'm glad at least I have programs like this on the internet at my disposal.
I'd love to visit a place like this but there literally arent any manors like this to visit where i live, or even within 100 miles. There are modern mansions buy they're either occupied and not open to the public or they've been converted into hotels and dont really look like the original mansion anymore. My area had a few major construction booms so there are very few buildings from before WW2 much less the Victorian era, and most of the surviving pre-WW2 buildings have been heavily remodeled to look newer. Shows like this are great for us to vicariously tour.
Can I take that home with me she says, lol Noooo it's taken me 2 years to find it 🤣🤣🤣🤣 The NERVE she's got, didn't even offer Any Money !!!
😄😄😄😄
She was clearly joking.
s... it’s called a Ricer today I have had one for decades. Mashed potatoes very smooth no lumps at all.
Absolutely wonderful
Excellent content! Thank you! Interesting and lovely to see🌟
They were so creative with the dishes. It looks simply Devine
As fascinated as I am with palace/royalty food, I don't find dishes in this series to look appetizing at all. The food makes sense, but the presentation is just like, "what compelled you to arranged it into a mountain shape?"
Difference in aesthetics, I guess.
So they can wear it as a hat occasionally.😂
How delightful!😊
I am really enjoying this series - the hosts are very entertaining! :)
i just wanted to look at the making of the food, nothing more :P
My Grandma had an iron that you put hot charcoal in it. It belonged to her grandma. I grew up with the antique iron holding the doors open. She also had a mop like to spread wax to wax floors. It would leave the floors shining. She had a maid and housekeeper, so fancy nowadays.
That mangler! I instantly knew what it was, because my parents had an electric mangler when I was little (in the late 80s). I remember how my mother would put the bedsheets in there, and they would come out on the other side. Sloooooowly. What a waste of time! I wouldn't dream of flattening my bedsheets. I mean, I guess the Shrugboroughs had to impress a queen, but why was my mother doing it??
I love Rosemary and Tim, I wish they would make new episodes :(
I love love love this house!!
Fascinating and very enjoyable!
I would love to have tasted the chestnut, it looked delicious!
I’m thinking the same thing!
I love that gambling "room", I'd so live in there with those stunning colors & wonderful round high ceilings.
Wow ! Its great & fun to see victorian era delicousies & bit of Living of Royals.I would like to see Dressings
"Interesting and intelligent looking child" OMG major shade threw at Victoria, when all know what he was really thinking!
What a fun show.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
Love the food subjects! So interesting
The phrase "you're plastered" actually DOES refer to them using the beer to make the plaster stick!
Modern hotels use a automated version of the ironing contraption for their bed linen.
This show has the production and writing of Diners, Drive ins, and Dives, but with two British people talking about a dead queen's life. It's unsettling for some reason? Is anyone else unsettled? Just me? Ok.
@terminaj2 A famous well loved dead queen, who lived a long life and kept a diary. You think it's morbid, and that's okay. People just like learning about the lives of those who they admire, dead or alive. This is a history gossip show instead of a modern celebrity gossip show. It's okay if it's not your thing.
Skitdora2010 I never used the word morbid.
@@midnightpredator18 they did not say you did use the word.
This dude's accent is so deliciously chewy!
W H A T - how could any program about this magnificent estate not mention the Shepherd's Monument??????????? That alone is likely the modern day attraction. Otherwise....I loved your presentation.
havingalook2 this is about the domestic life. Are you not familiar with upstairs downstairs?
the food looked......british
I don't suppose they have this dish in the frozen dinner section of my local supermarket, do they? If they were unable to finish their dinners were they offered a doggy bag to take it home?
LOVE YOUR CHANNEL 🌺🌸🌺
the invention of a washing machine certainly made laundry easier.
not for the staff tho, the staff gets the boot. what do you need ton of laundry maids for to watch over one washing machine.
as a cook this is some of the most interesting content to watch, got a sub from me! Would have loved to be a cook for the queen back then!
I love to have that chestnut recipe ♡
Such Greek and Roman architecture
Maybe I will propose to Ivan Day.
He can come and cook for me. 🤣
Terrific video!
Me watching this so I can learn how to dress up my home to make it look better😭
Great food and beer
I remember we did aspic decorations in chef school, but I would say, the ons we did, the cut outs for it was much more fancy than in this video.
Rosemary is really good with the chicken
Amit Mane. Watch Prior Attire for costumes from Viking to the start of the 20 th century. Undergarments and all
I didn't know there was a cholera epidemic at that time. Small beer [less alcohol], I guess that was that their lite beer of the day. Their beer was probably very high in B vitamins since it's not mfg. on a large commercial level. It's artisinal beer and lager So IPA had its origins there!??!!?
Is there a stock mixed n with the chestnuts?
Do you think Victoria would have liked fruit loops cereal?
the British are a different breed
If you guys think this looks nasty, you guys should see what the peasants were eating.... 😂
Rosemary scares me
I wonder if the kitchen staff back then used to eat food that was reserved for the rich? In secret of course.
That is a monk thing, to hide meat inside of some vegeterian something. German maultschen is the same. Like a big raviolo. Pasta is hiding the meatfilling.
12:00 "It took me two years to find one ..." Why not just make one? ... It should not take more than 10-20 minutes of work with a simple lathe!
Because his is more then likely an original from the era; looks like it too.
I thought the same thing. It doesn't look that hard to make.🥀
6:43 is that a dirty fingernail 😲?
theyre shooting for authenticity lol
Very like the Mormon Tabernacle Choir Building in Salt Lake City Utah in the USA
Seems a shame to interrupt the ads with the show...
How much did British cuisine and the style of presentation change in the course of the 19th century, I wonder. For example, would that potato / veg / pheasant dish have appeared on an upper class dining table in the 1880s as well as the 1830s, complete with tower of pureed chestnut in the centre? I'm going to dig around online for (preferably illustrated) recipes / recipe books for that time, but pointers to good sources would be welcome.
Lovely docu! Does anyone know the name of the piece that starts at 23:38?
She reminds me of mrs bucket from keeping up appearances.
“God save the Queen” is “My country tis of thee”??
Yes.
Yup
As an american this is hilarious i love it
Those potatoes were piped into that mold. Piping ha been around fabric and paper and probably before that with animal tissue.
Did any1 notice how wrinkled the. The table cloth was!
How can you make a dish with chestnuts when all the chestnut trees died in the chestnut blight?
Chestnut trees aren't extinct...
Well, you start off by getting some chestnuts... lol
I love food hehe
